SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
See "Safety Instructions" manual, supplied with this
instruction manual.
WARNING! Material containing asbestos must not be
polished. Working with materials containing amian-
thus/asbestos and/or silica stones produces a dust,
which is harmful to health. Protect yourself from inhal-
ing this dust, in compliance with current regulations on
accident prevention.
For your personal safety, always connect the machine
to a mains supply protected by a differential and ther-
mal cutout switch, in accordance with regulations on
low-voltage wiring sitemaps.
Do not pierce the motor housing as this could damage
the double insulation (use adhesive labels).
Check the work area with a metal detector for hidden
wires, gas and/or water pipes.
Always unplug the machine before carrying out
work on it.
Always stop the machine by switching it off, not by
unplugging it.
WARNING! Before each use, inspect the plug and
lead. Should they need replacing, have this done by an
official service centre.
Always keep the mains lead clear of the working range
of the machine.
Only plug the machine in when it is switched off.

Always use the machine with the auxiliary handle
attached.
Hold the machine firmly in both hands and in a stable
position.
Check that the speed marked on the disk is the
same or superior to the nominal velocity of the Ro-
torbital sander.
Assure yourself that the dimensions of the disk are
compatible with the Rotorbital sander.
The abrasive discs should be handled and kept with
the utmost care, in accordance with the manufac-
turer's instructions.
Protect the polisher from knocks, collisions and
grease.
Carefully verify the plate in order to assure yourself
that it is not damaged, nor does it have any cracks
before using it.
Assure yourself that the abrasive disks are mounted in
accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.
Check that the disc has been properly fitted and se-
cured before using the machine. Start the machine
with no load and run for 30 seconds in a safe position;
if you notice serious vibration or any other defect stop
the machine immediately. This can indicate a incorrect
installation or a badly balanced plate.
Beware of shavings that fly off. Hold the tool that so
that sparks fly away from you or other people and in-
flammable materials.
When working on stone, use dust extraction equipment
and wear a mask.
In order for the job to be effective, you should select,
based on the material and surface finish, the appropri-
ate size and abrasive.
Do not touch rotating polishing tools.
WARNING! The machine maintains itself running
during some moments after turning it off.
When working with the machine, always wear safety
goggles and ear protection. Other personal protection
equipment such as dust masks, gloves, helmet and
apron should be worn when necessary, along with
non-slip safety footwear. When considering the need
to use a protective mask against the dust, this should
also be for the possible harmful effects of the polished
material and paint or other surface coating. If in doubt,
use safety equipment.
Make sure the vents are free when working with dust. If
they require cleaning, first unplug the machine, do not
use metal objects and avoid damaging internal parts.
WARNING: Certain types of dust produced by mechani-
cal polishing, sawing, grinding and drilling, together with
other construction activities, contain chemical agents
which are known to cause cancer, congenital and other
similar defects. Some examples of the chemical agents
